UK Sailmakers’ Head Sail Designer Pat Considine uses BSG Development’s FSI sail analysis program to help fine-tune his sail designs. The FSI program works like a virtual wind tunnel allowing Pat to make sure no section of the sail becomes overloaded, allows him to see how the flying shape changes with trim, mast bend, rig tune across a range of wind speeds. The program analyses how all the components of the boat’s rig and sails work together. In this video Pat talks about how he used the program to advance his sail designs for square top mainsails. At the end of the video analyzing the mainsail shape on the Mark Mills designed Cape 31, Pat said, “Anyone who got a square top mainsail design this year benefited from the Cape 31 study. It helped improve the group’s designs for square top mainsails.” This is just one more example of the technical tools UK Sailmakers uses to ensure our customers get the fastest sails possible.

The Glen yacht, a stunning vessel designed by the talented Alfred Mylne in the Mid 1900's, is truly a timeless classic that has captured the hearts of many sailing enthusiasts. This remarkable yacht showcases an elegant design and exceptional craftsmanship, and you will find many of these beautiful boats racing each Wednesday Night on the picturesque and serene Strangford Lough. The first race of the eagerly anticipated 2025 season got underway in perfect conditions, with the sun shining brightly and a light to moderate breeze providing the ideal setting for a thrilling competition. As the day transitioned into night, the sunset was absolutely spectacular, painting the sky with vibrant hues as this Glen yacht punched through the glowing setting sun, making its way up to the final top mark in the exhilarating first race of the season. The team at Bottom Up Boats is incredibly excited to be back on the water for the 2025 racing season and is looking forward to capturing and bringing you more great footage of the thrilling events and beautiful moments throughout the season. The smooth and soothing sounds accompanying the breathtaking sunset are graciously provided by NoCopyright Sounds. The featured track, Diviners - Savannah (feat. Philly K), adds an extra layer of enjoyment to the visuals, and you can listen to the full version of this delightful track through the link provided below.
